MS Windows users do not know what a file extension is :-)

Google says, Adobe product creates sidecar xmp files only for proprietary raw
files and names them "name.xmp". For other common file formats, the xmp is
embedded and no sidecar file created (JPEG, DNG).

Better someone actually confirms if it still is true nowadays...

P.S. Having read more about the matter, I would now prefer compatibility
(name.xmp) to flexibility (name.ext.xmp).
